    Durant isn't on George full time. That's Durant's next step. Take on the best perimeter scorer full time.

    Maybe this game will raise Perkins' value enough for sacramento to trade for him, since they'll apparently in the market for bad contracts.

    Perkins isn't the problem. He's never been the problem. Coach Bonehead playing him too much is the issue. He just can't see what is obvious to everyone else in the world.

    The same thing may be developing with Thabo but at least he isn't 100% worthless on a regular basis.

    Paul George is so good. If the Pacers are not on the back end of a back-to-back this game will be a lot closer.

    Sefolosha getting abused by George while Durant locked him down before Brooks pulled all the starters out. Game is already over though.

    Durant's back in, that's respect for George.

    Actually it's Thunder starters minus Perkins vs. George + Pacers bench. Brooks not taking chance.

    Why not? They're both playing very well.

    i just don't give much credit home team benefiting from opponent getting a b2b away game. (thunder's big wins have mostly been in this category)

    Pacers had no energy tonight. All 3 losses have been back ends of road back-to-backs. I'll take the 3-2 road trip though

    I didn't care for the team result tonight, just the individual matchup. Same case for Tuesday. It's a breakout year for him. Good to gauge his progress in games like this v. better players than he is.
